About Me

Ay up mi duck! I'm Ben, from daaaaaaaan Derby. The tunes above, recorded with me mayyyyyyytes in Coventry (which is where i live now), give a rough idea of what i like do. I've only taken tunez seriously since i left the RAF a few years ago and am playing catch up at the mo, so thanks for everyonez support! ........My fave things so far: having my competition winning piece -"Distraction" performed at Coventry's Herbert art gallery by the renowned "Coull (String)Quartet", playing/writing for bulap's 2007 Coventry Jazz festival gig also at the Herbert gallery, performing Erik Satie's Vexations with Arran Poole, having a filthy time with WYJO, spinning Penderecki's "Threnody for the victims of Hiroshima" at Coventry SU's RnB night, hearing my stuff on the airwayyyyves, and gettin some tunez released on TrebleO....... I'll be honest, i'm not very versatile, but if you wanna chat about doin some stuff like what i do, or anythin else music or otherwise, you can here or at [email protected] Ta duck
